Written Answers
Financial Conduct Authority: Staff
Asked by: Lord Lee of Trafford (Liberal Democrat - Life peer)
Monday 22nd September 2025

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask His Majesty's Government how many people are employed by the Financial Conduct Authority.

Answered by Lord Livermore - Financial Secretary (HM Treasury)

This is a matter for the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), which is operationally independent from Government. The FCA will respond to the Noble Lord by letter, and a copy of the letter will be placed in the Library of the House of Lords.

Employment figures for the year ending March 2025 can be found in the FCA’s Annual Report and Accounts: https://www.fca.org.uk/publication/annual-reports/annual-report-2024-25.pdf

Royal College of Defence Studies: Overseas Students
Asked by: Lord Lee of Trafford (Liberal Democrat - Life peer)
Monday 29th September 2025

Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether they have banned Israeli students from attending the Royal College of Defence Studies because they consider Israel to have committed war crimes in Gaza.

Answered by Lord Coaker - Minister of State (Ministry of Defence)

UK military educational courses have long been open to personnel from a wide range of countries, with all UK military courses emphasising compliance with international humanitarian law.

However, the Israeli Government’s decision to further escalate its military operation in Gaza is wrong. There must be a diplomatic solution to end this war now, with an immediate ceasefire, the return of the hostages and a surge in humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza. We have therefore paused future Israeli participation in UK-run courses.

Submarines
Asked by: Lord Lee of Trafford (Liberal Democrat - Life peer)
Monday 29th September 2025

Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the comments by Vice-Admiral Angus Topshee, commander of the Royal Canadian Navy, that there is a likely future scenario where the oceans are “effectively transparent and submarines are no longer allowed to hide”.

Answered by Lord Coaker - Minister of State (Ministry of Defence)

We recognise that there are increasing threats to maritime security, including the underwater battlespace, from technological change and the proliferation of advanced capabilities. Assessments of these threats directly inform how we pursue technological advancements across all domains, including in the way we design, build and operate our submarines, to ensure the effectiveness of our capabilities in complex and challenging environments.
